Relaxing getaway

My family and I enjoyed our stay very much. The condo was very clean and it was a short walk to the beach. The provided coffee k-cups was very generous and having a Starbucks so close was very convenient.

The Pro’s. The area is perfect and you can walk to several restaurants and beach. We loved that we could walk out and sit on the dock in the morning and evening. The Con’s. The mattress was like sleeping on a blow up mattress that bent in the corner where I slept. We never got a good night sleep unfortunately. The bathroom had a moldy smell to it. The unit next to us smoke detectors kept going off at all hours waking us up. If you replace the mattress for a better one and get the moldy smell out of the bathroom this place would be perfect for 2 people. I hope this review helps the next guess have a better nights sleep. Thank you for the stay.

I’m sorry to hear about your experience. Reviews are the life blood of our business and your issues could have been shared with me and possibly addressed during your stay rather than waiting till after you checked out and then making them public. You are the first guest to ever complain about the comfort of the bed. The space is professionally cleaned between each guest and I shared your review with the owner of the cleaning company and she said that she personally deep cleaned that unit before you checked in. You definitely were not smelling mold so it’s possibly the moist/humid Florida climate that made you think that, I’m not sure. 🤷 I don’t know what was going on with the smoke alarm next-door but again, it’s the first I’ve heard of it.

Nice cozy place, perfect location

Great clean apartment, well stocked, wonderful location - walked to dining and beach. Modern amenities. Great outdoor waterfront space to relax (shared with other apartments). It is a small apartment, so not for those wanting to spend a lot of time inside, but for our purposes - it was perfect. Very well-managed and easy code based check-in.

About the host

Hosted by Mickey Moore

Host profile image
I grew up in Oklahoma(BOOMER SOONER!) and Li grew up in mainland China. We met as coworkers in Tampa in 2008 and the rest is history. We both got in to real estate in 2016 and then discovered the vacation rental industry. And we love it!

Our home base is about an hour from the beach. We enjoy our dogs, RV travel, and playing poker(Li is a semi-pro).

Why they chose this property

We always wanted a place near the beach so we jumped on this gem when the opportunity presented itself.

What makes this property unique

Back by the water is sooo relaxing! And the location is perfect for walking everywhere on the island.
